Would you mind sharing which MT-based service you're using for podcast transcription?

CastingWords. I've been very happy with them for my purposes. They tend to even get various CamelCase product spellings and the like correct even if I forget to put them in the transcriber notes. I usually get the 6-day $1.50/min service partly because I need the turnaround and partly because, anecdotally, the quality also goes up a bit when you pay for the premium rates. I do maybe a couple dozen 20 minute podcasts a year so the costs are negligible.

Thanks for the plug, we love happy customers.

btw: We no longer use MTurk, we have our own crowd now.

Thanks. I'm dealing with hours of interviews per day.
